Description from the seller
Lot of 2 S.T. Dupont Lighters - "Laque de Chine" (Chinese Lacquer) - Blue & Black - Working
Object Description
Splendid lot composed of two iconic lighters from the prestigious French house S.T. Dupont, both crafted with the authentic and rare Chinese Lacquer (Laque de Chine). These pieces represent the excellence of Parisian craftsmanship, combining the resilience of precious metal with the chromatic depth of natural lacquer.
Lot Details:
• Specimen 1 (Blue): Ligne 2 model (taller) in midnight blue lacquer and gold-plated finishes.
• Specimen 2 (Black): Ligne 1 / Gatsby model in deep black lacquer and gold-plated finishes.
• Material: Both bear the authentic symbol of the leaf ideogram, certifying the use of true plant lacquer extracted from the lacquer tree.
• Technical Conditions: Both lighters are perfectly functioning with signs of wear compatible with age. The valves hold gas and the ignition mechanism is smooth and precise.
• Aesthetic Conditions: Good vintage condition. They show light and normal signs of wear on the plating, typical of age, which give character to the pieces without compromising their elegance. The lacquer is intact and free of cracks.
• Hallmarks: Original bases with inscriptions "S.T. Dupont Paris - Made in France" and individually engraved serial numbers (BRY997 and U4FG27).
Additional Notes:
The lighters are sold without the original box and without documents. They will be shipped with appropriate protective packaging and by tracked and insured shipping.
